Mosque of the Divinity, Dakar

The Mosque of Divinity is a mosque in Ouakam, Senegal, that was erected in 1997. It is a two-minareted construction. Because the mosque is located near the Corniche-Ouest, it has a view of the Atlantic Ocean.

Mohamed Gorgui Seyni Guèye was the one who came up with the idea for the mosque. In 1973, he came up with the concept. The real structure, however, was erected by Cheikh Ngom and didn't finish until 1997. During construction, no money was paid to anyone.

The Divinity Mosque is one of the city's most notable architectural achievements, and it is one of the most beautiful historical sites in Senegal. Non-Muslims are not permitted to enter the hallowed edifice, however they are permitted to photograph its façade and visit the nearby streets and bazaar. The neighboring beach is ideal for snorkeling and surfing.
